I don't always feel like cooking...
But I absolutely had to use up some seitan sitting 'round my fridge. I found a recipe on VegWeb for sweet-and-sour seitan. And I did use up some tofu yesterday in a rerun favorite recipe.
Now, why am I posting so late? Well, as I tried to explain to my yowling cat (she gets very vocal if she thinks I've spent too much time away from home), with my new job, the commute is longer. I had to pick up a couple of things (well, more than a couple) at the Whole Foods. Then, I stopped by my boyfriend's place to pick up his mail, as he is still out of town. The elevators at his place are as slow as molasses (but not as bad as they used to be). I had to wait for a bus, which was very crowded and made numerous stops. So it was around 8:00 when I got home.
The food isn't very pretty, but it was tasty. I love sweet-and-sour dishes. I think I should have just used one onion instead of two, but I do love onions. The peppers I used really shrank in the cooking process. The canned pineapple chunks were nice and juicy. It's not often I buy canned fruit, but since the recipe called for it, that's what I did. I also cooked up some brown rice to go with it. Yummy.
But I can't leave you without pictures, so here are some of the view from the boat of Boston Harbor and the fluke of the whale. The other pictures I got, you really can't tell what it is. :(
It was a beautiful, warm day. The only time I needed my jacket was when we were approaching the area where the whales feed.
I hope I can go back to Boston again to take part in another whale watch. This was just amazing.
